shercoben12 Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 yes, use bar riasers and renthal 7/8 trials bars. these are slightly higher than fat bars... good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shercoben12 Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 the fatbar and 7/8 bars feel almost the same and the 7/8 is narrower the fatbars are stronger and generally more preferred! john shirt of gasgas uk prefers 7/8s and thats the only gasser ive seen with them on!

petrs Posted July 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 I asked my local dealer and he offered me this one: http://www.gasgasmotos.cz/cart_gg/product_S3parts/HA-BUF-B.jpg It's S3 Buffalo High handlebar and looks very similar like Renthal Fatbar. Price is better and I don't have to long wait for it. Do you have some experience with this handlebar? Thanks, Petr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shercoben12 Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 petr no i have not used this bar. i use renthal fat bars. the buffalo bars are narrower than renthals fat bar. s3 also make a champion bar which is pretty much the same as a renthal fat bar. it depends wether you want it wider or narrower they are all pretty similar height wise...

sting32 Posted July 18, 2013 Report Share Posted July 18, 2013 I had a master rider pipe up in a conversation, I laughed so hard, I have to share it here... He asked, "so, do you relocate all the door knobs in your house too?" that is my sentiments. raise the bars, changes how your weight is on the bike, can cause you weird handling. if you were 6ft 4 and above, I might understand, but under that, stock is probably best.
